British flag

Le drapeau britannique

Last issue of Knitonthenet is on and I have a pattern in it. It even made it to the front page! Here are the pictures I took, in poor conditions, sick and whithout much light, before the flag was send out. How appropriate is the tutorial I posted just before, don´t you think ?

Knitting this cardigan didn´t go very smooth: remember the moth ? The giant one not the real one in my stash. About half the sweater, coming home, I found a pair of scissors lying on the floor, my needles with it, my knitting box (3 cereals boxes) with 13 skeins that had been cut off the cardi and...no cardi ! I must say I got a bit hysterical.

After a lot of screaming and 16 long minutes searching, I finally found the cardi in the toy chest. The moth was granted as it took me more than half an hour to put the stitches back on needles. Them I was so upset, I made a mistake in the pattern, and I had to frog 15 cm (thus being able to show you frogging pictures in the tutorial: that I would not have done on purpose !).
